COBB Turbo Blanket - Volkswagen Golf GTI (Mk7/Mk7.5) / Golf R (Mk7/Mk7.5) / Audi S3 (8V)
The COBB turbo blanket wraps the turbine housing on the EA888 turbo in the Volkswagen Golf GTI and Golf R Mk7/Mk7.5, Audi S3 8V and Audi A3 8V quattro. Keeping exhaust heat inside the housing helps the turbo spool faster and reach peak torque sooner, and cuts the heat that soaks into nearby parts and the engine bay.
